The 12 of us made a "gift" to swap with each other also. Sara took this picture of all of the gifts (Lesley's book is missing - I'll have to add a picture later.)
I made the "DVD case organizer" (top right corner of picture). I would be willing to run it as a class if you're interested! I really liked them!!!
Dayna made everyone necklaces with paper beads and faceted buttons. They were a big hit!
Gisele made everyone "pinecone" style paper ornaments. Loved them! She also found the sweet little Canada flag bracelets for everyone.
Catherine made us all purses (they were a big hit with everyone who saw them) and matching Lanyards for our nametags. She put a box of tea and hand sanitizer in the purses too.
Tami made us a magnetic bookmark with our initial and three little magnetic clothespins. So cute!
Sara made us fabric drink "sleeves". Gorgeous!
Adele made a beautiful embossed magnetic bookmark for everyone.
Stacey made us the fabric tissue holder and a gorgeous tag with our initial cut out of metal flashing and embossed.
Kari made us the fabulous covered calendars and the emery boards with sweet little toppers.
Claudette made us all a gorgeous fabric luggage tag.
Sheri made adorable fabric flower brooches. She said she has made some into headbands and hair clips too. So cute!
OH! The book that Lesley made for us is not pictured. I used it for all my Convention notes! I LOVE it! (It definitely would meet the requirements for covering a book - which Courtney suggested we could do at a class!!) I will take a picture of it soon.
They are lovely gifts and it was a great swap. I was a bit panicked about mine, but it turned out ok in the end. I just could not come up with a cute enough cover decoration, so I gave up and left it blank! This way, they can decorate it themselves! If you'd like to make the DVD organizer as a gift for yourself or someone else, let me know by leaving a comment on this post. I will happily order more cases and mini calendars! :)
Have a wonderful day!
Andra
